First Impressions...

First, I'm so excited to see someone tackle the crowdfunding application of Steem. I've been anxiously awaiting a development like this for a long time.

Logged in with SteemConnect easily. The site has a very pleasing design and seems very well done. Most of the site text is well done, but the Purple Paper could use some attention in it's english translation. It reads a bit clunky and strange. There are also a couple typos you'll want to address on the site. *(Check the "Start New Prroject" button first!)*

I'm happy to see the roadmap mentioning continuing UI design, bug fixes, app development, etc. From my exploration so far, I don't see a way to follow a project from within the site itself. I gave my first "heart donation" to the launchpad, "Save the Whales" campaign. I'd like to be able to see that in my dashboard and possibly see my heart levels across all projects.

There are some icons in the top right heads up display that are unclear to me and could use further explanation. The mention of setting up a recurring support subscription is also great, and I'm curious how it's implemented. Is it basically an integrated "Steemvoter" type bot? I didn't see any option in my cast vote.

Personally I think the aspect of growing your heart power and the supporter role you've defined, vs the backer role and it's direct transfer of funds, are the key differentiating factor of Steem and a huge selling point and should be emphasized even more! Voting is such a frictionless method of support it's wonderful.

The site fundamentals are also a bit confusing concerning defined goal projects (ala Kickstarter) vs. continuing creator support (ala Patreon). I'm hesitant to play around with setting up a Patreon style project without knowing if it can be edited or outright ended at a later point by the founder. Would love to see more documentation on that before I commit something to the blockchain!

I'd also like to see a bit more information on exactly how the system is working in terms of what Steem blockchain content is being included in the calculations. Does a project automatically end on Fundition if it's met it's heart goal? Do all posts made by the founder account count toward the campaign or is it tag based? Do votes on comments count toward the heart totals?

I'm sure all this will play out in time with more tutorials, documentation and refinement. Not jumping on you at all, quite the contrary I'm impressed, excited and enthusiastic! Just my suggestions for documentation and improvements.

Keep up the great work, looking ahead to much success!

First of all, thank you for your feedback.

We will improve both text soon :) and I m sorry if you had hard time to understand something.

I and my team are glad. You gave your Hearts to the first Fundition Limited Edition project. 
Which mean that you will appear here : http://www.saveawhale.fundition.io/ 

Seems like you are talking about your items in your inventory. And this point will be explained in the future update with more interaction and more help (as popup, etc)

The recurring bot is in work, but I cant say much about it now. But I hope that will be well receveid by the community.

I will give a fast answer to your questions but we are also building our FAQ (in a decentralized way) and everyone will be able to find these kind of information soon.

On Fundition the project end only when the post passt 7 days. But with an update by the founder or by a collaborator the project will/can continue. That mean, you can start a project, do a little pause for weeks and continue to make updates to get it in the trending of Fundition (explore page).

Only updates made with Fundition count toward the campaign. Since we are the only platform to allow sharing your rewards. But we are already working to give the possibilty to make an update with all DAPPS platform.

Both comments and donations, on your post and on your updates are taken into count for the total heart. Sometimes Donations are not displayed, just need another refresh, but this is because api.steemit changed some things few weeks ago.

We will work to simplify our platform and to give extra tutorial to help new users to achieve their dreams.

Thank you for your time :)

Great response, it covers pretty much all my concerns and saves me typing them all :)

I have to say this looks like a project with great potential, but certainly could do with a lot of polishing. Then again, this is at a very early stage; I will keep a close eye on this and see where it is heading.
